NAME
       rwsnoop - snoop read/write events. Uses DTrace.

SYNOPSIS
       rwsnoop [-jPtvZ] [-n name] [-p PID]

DESCRIPTION
       This is measuring reads and writes at the application level. This matches the syscalls read, write, pread and pwrite.

       Since this uses DTrace, only users with root privileges can run this command.

       -j     print project ID

       -P     print parent process ID

       -t     print timestamp, us

       -v     print time, string

       -Z     print zone ID

       -n name
	      process name to track

       -p PID PID to track

EXAMPLES
       Default output,
	      # rwsnoop
